Riding The Wave Of Industrial Growth: Analyst Upgrades LXP Industrial


20-Year Pro Trader Reveals His "MoneyLine"

Ditch your indicators and use the "MoneyLine". A simple line tells you when to buy and sell without the guesswork. It’s a line on a chart that’s helped Nic Chahine win 83% of his options buys. Here's how he does it.


  • KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Todd M. Thomas upgraded LXP Industrial Trust (NYSE:LXP) to Overweight from Sector Weight with a price target of $12.
  • The analyst believes LXP's single-tenant, net lease industrial portfolio is doing well and expects steady future growth, with leasing spreads below 20% (around 33% of annualized base rate) scheduled to expire through 2026. 
  • Also, Thomas expects development leasing to continue improving and support core growth.
  • However, the analyst sees the four non-core office assets (especially 1701 Market Street, Philadelphia) as an overhang, and projects disposition in the near term should benefit the company.
  • Thomas raised the estimate for FFO per share to $0.70 (from $0.69) vs. a consensus of $0.68 for 2023 on expected higher net operating income run-rate in the quarter. 
  • The analyst reduced FFO per share estimate to $0.70 (from $0.71) versus a consensus of $0.71 for 2024 on projected dilution from non-core office asset sales. 
  • Earlier this month, LXP reported Q1 2023 revenues of $85.1 million, beating the consensus of $81.3 million.
  • Price Action: LXP shares are trading higher by 1.73% at $9.99 on the last check Monday.
